Produktbeschreibung

Currently, there are over 15 million legally designated refugees all over the world and it is documented that 75 percent of those refugees are women. Most of the literature on refugees focuses on political, economic, and social issues with very little reference to the mental health implications of the refugees' experiences as women. Refugee Women and Their Mental Health begins to fill this paucity of information on female refugees' experiences. A book of immediate interest, it focuses on understanding the plight of women refugees around the world, with an emphasis on mental health. The book adds successful and innovative treatment and recovery models for these women survivors. Some of the chapters are written by women who are therapists/psychologists now and who have been refugees themselves which adds additional insight into the plight and resulting mental health problems of refugee women.
